Story
A one-year-old male Cocker Spaniel, Charlie, joined our family as a puppy. He is loving, loyal, and deeply affectionate, forming strong bonds with those he loves. Each morning and every return home is met with genuine joy. He loves the dog park, enjoys being outdoors, and likes roaming and following his nose. Gentle and kind-natured, he uses soft paws, has never bitten, and truly wants to please. He understands his collar and leash and politely signals when he needs to go outside by waiting patiently at the door or gently tapping an arm. He prefers sleeping in his crate and often goes there on his own for rest or special treats. Empathic and soulful, he is very attuned to the emotions of the people around him. He responds especially well to routine and structure and thrives with predictable daily rhythms. He would do best in a home where someone is around during the day, ideally with young children, a yard, and an active family life.

Story
He’s is a loving and energetic dog, and great with my kids. The problem is that we just do not have the space or time to give him the life and attention he needs. We want him to go to a home with a fenced yard and ideally someone who can play with him everyday. He’s 2, turning 3 in June.

Story
Brother/Sister and don't want to separate them. They've been together since birth. They will be 6 in March 2026. They are pad trained but Zelda will mistake carpeting at times. Ideally do great with hard floors. They will take some time to get used to a new environment though (about 2 weeks) and will have some accidents during that time. Just want to set the bar so no surprises. They don't bark a lot either but postman or delivery they will alert you. They have been pretty well socialized since they were young and are not at all aggressive and will like someone more than anything. Zelda does lick a lot. Link is fixed but Zelda is not. Zelda is 5.5 lbs. and Link is 11 lbs. They do great with kids. They don't pick fights with cats, but Link will most likely avoid them. They've been around other dogs and never had a problem their either.

Story
We are lovingly seeking a new forever home for our nearly 4 year old Maltese-Bichon mix, under 15 lbs. She is a sweet and playful companion who is house trained, though she may need a short adjustment period in a new home, and she truly enjoys being close to her people. She would thrive in a calm, nurturing environment where she can receive consistent love and attention. Due to upcoming changes in our household, we believe it is in her best interest to find a home that can better meet her needs long-term. Her vaccinations are not currently up to date, and she is not spayed, which we want to share transparently. This has been a very difficult decision, and our priority is to ensure she is placed in a safe, stable, and loving forever home.
